Snow, long days, a cold and one very long day...TWINS!

So what an exciting week it has been.  First there was a snow day on Monday.  Daddy stayed at home with LJ and got to play in the snow...

I had to do some extremely long hours at work as needed to get ready for things picking up as life returns back to normal after the festive season but with the long days and snotty noses (my cold really kicked in by Wednesday)  my wonderful friend Emma gave birth to two gorgeous little girls!  All natural on top of that.  So impressed.  If we still had our car I would have been on my way right now to go and see her (minus the cold of course!)

Well after the hustle and bustle this week as well as Friday not finishing until 8.30pm and getting home at 10pm I can now finally say I am off for a week. So looking forward to spending it with my family and friends.  I have a birthday coming up too!  (Hair dye coming out tonight to hide the extra grey)

So this bag would be on my wish list...but which colour?

Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow

On Friday I finally I got my wish of lots of snow.  Where my desk sits at work I have a great view to the outside world and was able to see all the flurries coming down.  At about 10.15 I got that dreaded call from the Nursery but in some ways there was a hint of excitement because I got to experience the snow with my amazing daughter.

I still remember last year when she refused to walk in it or touch it and she had to be carried everywhere.  This year was so different.  Her little face was a picture when I finally got to her and for the first time in a while she was in a rush to leave the nursery.  Her first words when we got outside and the snow started falling on her was "It tickles!"

On the way home there was lots of little snowmen being built by LJ.  Then snow being chucked about. We finally got in doors and she could not wait for Daddy to get home.

Saturday we headed out into the garden to go and enjoy the snow.  It was hard to get her back in doors but we lured her in with a lovely mug of hot chocolate and for mommy?  A lovely cup of coffee!

Crazy Week

What a crazy week it has been!  I don't feel like my feet has touched the ground at all.  I was so looking forward to the weekend as I have a custom order to complete for a little man called Sid.  He is going to his Granma's 60th Birthday and needs to look his best.  So mum got in touch and ordered a Knitted Striped Bow tie.  I was due to start this today but unfortunately have been bogged down with a cold.  Not great...so instead of knitting I worked a bit on my blog.  Changed the font sizes, lettering and so forth.  Still not perfect so this I will label as "work in progress"  Let me know what you think?

Also in this post I wanted to do a shout out to my wonderful friend from Lauren Hillhouse Photography.  She has reached 5000 hits on her blog this week.  Isn't that just awesome?  She is so amazingly talented.  She does my product shoots as well as records all the beautiful memories of my daughter.  Get in touch with her as she is amazing with babies, kids and moms-to-be!  She will provide you with a dream photo shoot!

What an awesome day this was!  Just a shame the girls missed out on the pony ride and the petting zoo.
